Mothers Day ... Sunday

Mommy in early 1963

Mommy just after Gizel her great grandchild 2009













This tribute is to my mom, a beautiful lady of the young age of 66.  Mom you are a blessing to each one of your children, near and far.  You have always looked out for us and have been through very difficult times.  I know you have sat up many nights praying for each one of us.  I know you are strong and your faith has been strong in the Lord.  You are courageous and you take one new tasks each day.  You run your live with vigour, nothing is too difficult for you to do.  You love knitting and reading.  I know you spend a lot of time thinking of the past and sometimes I believe you wish you could turn back the hand of time and go and change things.  God knows your heart and desires and I know that He is looking out for you each day.  You worry about the children and grandchildren and also your great grandchild.  You think of the days gone by and wish for the future supernatural favour in each of your children’s lives.  You stand proud at the knowledge that your daughters and son are good parents; you know they have the best interest for their own children at heart.  You love us unconditionally and you have an ear to lend when times are hard.  We love and honour you for being the person you are, the lady of statue we really appreciate all you have done for us in the past and well as in the now.   We have no better mum in the whole wide world but you Mommy, Elizabeth Nester Alberts (Pat).  Never forget we love you and think the world of you.!!

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Friday thoughts

Luke 22: 27 "who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves?" To serve people isn't always easy, I find you start feeling like a servant. But to grow spiritually I feel that I need to be of service to my fellow friend God has been so good to me I am able to bake cakes decorating them according to the spec My service to my friends is important to me. I am grateful that I can bake cakes Being of service to others. God is in control and always making a way for me. As I think of the weekend ahead of me I know I need to be of service to others I need to consider other peoples needs above my own Lord Jesus, please  bless each person reading this message give them the necessary wisdom and understanding  and let us be of service to others.  in Your holy name Jesus, Amen RELATED RESOURCES: Join in today with a one-minute scripture, and a personal inspirational message, and prayer, with Yvette van Niekerk...

~ Reach Out if You Wish to Succeed ~ Galatians 5:13 – “By love, serve one another.”

Gentle reader, Permit me to offer this quiet truth: success does not arrive on satin cushions, announced by trumpets or tapping politely at your parlour door. No — it is more elusive, more noble in its pursuit. It often hides itself behind connections yet to be made, and relationships yet to be pursued. To flourish in this life, one must be bound — not by title or fortune — but by divine connection. For those who are destined to elevate you may not arrive unbidden. More often, it is you who must summon the courage to seek them out. Let us consider the evidence: Why is the newspaper sold on every corner, and the soda machine placed on every floor? Because success is positioned where the people are. Even our beloved Lord, Jesus — did He sit upon a high throne in a palace, declaring, “Only here may you find Me?” Certainly not. He moved among the people — to the market stalls, along the dusty shores where fishermen cast their nets, into the synagogues and modest homes. “He went through...
